Some Facts tn Regard to Mine

Communicated
This is the season of the year when

these express the belief that all the lands
that are worth leasing, have been exhausted
Of pay ore, at and near the surface, In
this district. This belief is not in accord.
ance with the facts, but tho inability Of
the majority of prospectors, to provide
themselves with provisions and mining
supplies, to keep them during the time
they are necessarily occupied in doing
dead work, is we'll understood, and should
be duly considered by mine owners. II
Is not difficult for miners to find good
mining ground to lease, il they are will.

ton OF their rights, after pay ore is dis
covered, is simply q matter of business,
and there Is no mine owner who can rea-
sonably object to enter into Q properly

the lessor and lessee. II is proper that
good faith should be kept between both
parties. and all the provisions Of q written
contract be strictly carried out, as
nearly as possible. Miners generally
want ore in eight to start on. before TAX
ing q lease. which is good enough; but
when suoh g place is secured. they should
have backbone enough to prospect the
ground surrounding it after the ore in
sight is extracted, for q reasonable length
of time at least. In some cases miners
will bind a mine owner by written con-
tract to lease for a given time. and 60 to
work in apparent good faith, but after
gouging the ore in sight, leave the mine
full OF waste rock, in direct violation OF
the written contract by which they have
bound the lessor, and in an unfit condi.

lessor in most cases has no redress, and
consequently. after repairing the damage
done to his mine, does not feel encouraged
to give the more honest class of miners q

Decision of In Secretary OF the In
terror in q BOdie Case.

Decision of the Secretary OF the In.
terror in q BOdie Case.
An Associated Press dispatch says: The
Secretary Of the Interior has decided the
case of Bodie (Cal.) mineral entry No. II,
made December 1, 1883, by Henry Will
Jams for the Great Western claims. He
holds that the entryman has complied
with the law as to publication and posting
of notices. Mr.. Sparks declined to ap.
prove the entry for the patents, holding
that the posting in the local Land Office
did not cover the entire period Of publica-
ton upon the entry; that If that publica-
ton is for a longer period than 60 days the
posting in the local Office must cover the
entire period Of publication; although an
identical period Of 60 days may have been
covered by the publication and posting of
the notice in the local Office. The Secre-
tary says that when the notice is required
to beEgiven by different forms and modes
to cover the same continuous period of
time, a notice by either OF the different
modes will not run against an adverse
claimant until the notice being given by
each and every mode and for the required
time. Hence, as in this case, an adverse
climant does not take notice by publica-
ton until the notice is posted in the Cali
fornia office. as required by law. Although
the publication may have commenced
from the filing of the notice in the local
Office, the 60 days within which adverse
claims were filed will be computed from
the time the notice has been given by. all
the modes required.

Belle is only IL years old, and che and
Jack have always been warm friends. One

room enough between the shelves and the
entrance for her to stand erect, and while

to induce her to follow him. At first she
thought him mad. but finally started up
stairs after him, Jack turning himself
around and wagging his tail at every step.
Upon reaching the closet bis whining and

she would have been dead. Jack was
overcome with joy at the rescue and re-
fused to be parted from Belle for some
